Morning Acid by Milieu

Morning Acid could be considered a post-Housework series Housework entry. It collects several different live Milieu sessions that all feel unified through the selection of hardware they are composed with, and although the title of this collection implies acid and techno, there are certainly other colors and temperatures of braindance present also.

The various sessions presented here were recorded many different mornings while barely awake, often only moments after I would return home from driving my daughter to school, waiting for the coffee to kick in and nudging some faders with a half-melted mind. One was even performed while an HVAC repairman was doing work in my basement, though I'm not sure what he even made of it in hindsight. Like the Bismuth Cosmolog volumes at RP, Morning Acid showcases my playful and slightly weird side with analog machines and filter squawking, and feels much more cogent with all the different pieces assembled into a single, acid-fried whole.
